I have been using it for months now to preplan and fly missions with my Mavic mini. I recently acquired a Mavic Air 2 but haven't created missions for it yet. It takes a bit of time to learn the process but it does the job.

I just watched a test flight of Mavic Air 2 and it showed that the App disconnects with the drone and reconnects at random times even when it is only a few feet away. The recommendation was to not use the 1.2.4 app until the problem is fixed. Any comments?

For preplanned flights that can be repeated I use Dronelink. Dronelink | Automated | DJI | Parrot | 3D Flight Planning | United States

Where can I get Firmware v01.00.0340? There is a video on Youtube explaining all of the new features.

I just received a reply from DJI in China regarding how to store the controller to protect the controller battery. Here is part of the reply that I received: Thank you for contacting DJI Technical Support. If the battery is left unused for a long time, its performance will be affected. To keep...

What state of charge should the controller be in for long term storage. I can't find any info on it in the manual.

I use Dronelink and it works quite well with waypoints.

I can't maintain line of sight when I use Follow Me Mode. The drone is behind me. Does that mean it is illegal?

I just looked for the setting and it is no longer there. Up until this morning there was an option to choose either compass or magnetic. It may have been deleted in a firmware update. I guess I don't need to worry about it anymore.

It is on the "SAFETY" menue just below "UPDATE HOME POINT"

The selection is in the DJI Fly app that I use to fly my Mavic mini. I don't know if it matters which one I choose. What do you use?

My question was which setting should I use in the DJI Fly app? I have a private pilot license and know what the difference is between compass and magnetic because of variation and deviation. I just don't know which setting the app requires or if it even matters.

In the dJI Fly settup should I choose compass or magnetic and why?

I installed my newly acquired lens hood on my Mavic Mini and made a video of a local landmark. Before I left I decided to add a Helix to include in my final edited version. I made a fatal mistake in not positioning myself far enough away from two very large spruce trees before initiating the...

That's a great idea. I will check it out.
